Hello, I have changed some file icons by forgetting to uncheck the box "use this programme to open all files of this type"
Is there a file in vista where i can view the icons associated with all my file types.
I have heard it is imageres.something, but I cannot open the file.
Thanks, Jack.

Thanks Shawn, that restored the file.
It would be good if the box "always use this programme to open files of this type" in open file with, could always be unchecked by default, so people don't accidentally associate files with other programmes, unless they wan't to and then they could check the box.
But as it is the box is always checked by default.

Do you know if this could this be done?

Good fix Shaun, so are the reg. fixes in "Default File Type Associations - Restore"

I wonder if .manifest and .sqlite could be added to that list?

Hello Brink can you add .tmp to the list
thanks.

Thanks Shawn, the first part in CLASSES_ROOT didn't show in the registry, although the TMP file was restored to what appeared normal.

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tmp]


[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.tmp]


[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.tmp]



So I edited it to this.


[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tmp]


[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.tmp]


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.tmp]


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.tmp\OpenWithList]


Did I do right? the TMP file still appears restored to default.
